 Replying to [comment:13 pracine]:
 \> Shoul I understand here that it is not possible to resample to a
 rotated grid using GDAL?

 the first series of variant when the raster is rotated... If the raster is
 not rotated only changing the pixel size make sense (variant 1 and 3). You
 want the upperleft corner to stay the same. But what if the raster is
 rotated? I would solve this like this:

 second series) allowing to specify the new rotation if we want to keep
 one.

 No.  You can resample to a rotated grid as you can specify the output
 raster's geotransform, which gets used in the third stage of the
 GDALCreateGenImgProjTransformer2 function.

 I think the desired behavior is to maintain the skew of the input raster.
 Only by specifying skew parameters should the resampled raster's skew
 change.

 Is it possible for you (or anyone else for that matter) to send me a small
 set of skewed rasters?  I could use landsat imagery but I'm looking for
 something more manageable.
